Rafi Amit, Camtek's Chairman and CEO, commented, "The strength in our fourth quarter 2016 culminates a very good year for Camtek, with record full year revenues and solid improvements in our profitability margins and our bottom line. Our ongoing performance is being driven primarily by strong performance of our semiconductor business and in particular by systems for the advanced packaging market. In addition, the improvement in the operating margin is very gratifying and we expect it to continue to improve in 2017. "
Added Mr. Amit, "Looking ahead, our business environment remains strong and we have seen a robust start to 2017. All signs point to another year of solid growth for Camtek, driven by continued double-digit growth of our semiconductor business. The first quarter, which includes the Chinese New Year, is typically the weakest one of the year. However, this year, we expect a strong first quarter with revenues at around, or possibly slightly better than, the fourth quarter levels, representing year-over-year growth of 20%."
Fourth Quarter 2016 Financial Results
Revenues for the fourth quarter of 2016 were \$29.3 million. This compares to fourth quarter 2015 revenues of \$25.8 million, a growth of 14% and prior quarter revenues of \$28.5 million, an increase of 3%.
Gross profit on a GAAP basis in the quarter totaled \$13.4 million (45.7% of revenues), compared to \$10.6 million (41.3 of revenues) in the fourth quarter 2015 and \$7.5 million in the prior quarter (26.2% of revenues).

Gross profit on a GAAP basis totaled \$44.0 million (40.1% of revenues), compared to \$43.1 million (43.4% of revenues) in 2015.
Gross profit on a non-GAAP totaled \$48.9 million (44.7% of revenues), compared to \$44.2 million (44.5% of revenues) in 2015. The gross profit on a GAAP basis excludes the \$4.9 million effect of the FIT re-organization including the write-off of inventory and other one-time expenses.

Operating profit on a non-GAAP basis totaled \$7.9 million (7.2% of revenues), compared to \$6.0 million (6.0% of revenues) in 2015. The operating profit excluded a one-time net expense of \$0.9 million due the reorganization of the FIT activity. This one-time expense includes a \$5.6 million inventory and fixed asset write-off, other expenses of \$0.3 million, partially offset by income of \$5.0 million related to a write-off of liabilities to the Office of the Chief Scientist in Israel.
Net income on a GAAP basis totaled \$4.7 million, or \$0.13 per diluted share. This compares to a net loss of \$10.1 million, or \$0.30 per diluted share, in 2015.

Cash, cash equivalents, short and long-term restricted deposits, as of December 31, 2016 were \$19.7 million compared to \$30.8 million as of December 31, 2015. The reduction was primarily due a \$14.6 million payment made to Rudolph for IP litigation.
The Company reported a positive operating cash flow of \$0.4 million during the quarter.

This press release is available at www.camtek.com .
This press release may contain projections or other forward-looking statements regarding future events or the future performance of the Company. These statements are only predictions and may change as time passes. We do not assume any obligation to update that information. Actual events or results may differ materially from those projected, including as a result of changing industry and market trends, reduced demand for our products, the timely development of our new products and their adoption by the market, increased competition in the industry, intellectual property litigation, price reductions as well as due to risks identified in the documents filed by the Company with the SEC.
Use of non-GAAP Measures
This press release provides financial measures that exclude certain items such as: (i) write off of inventory and fixed-assets related to the discontinued FIT product line; (ii) revaluation of liabilities with respect to the acquisition of Printar; (iii) the impact of reorganization and impairment charges; and (iv) share based compensation expenses, and are therefore not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management believes that these Non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP measures when evaluating the business internally and therefore felt it is important to make these non-GAAP adjustments available to investors. A reconciliation between the GAAP and non-GAAP results appears in the tables at the end of this press release.
